New java-1.6.0-bea packages

New java-1.6.0-bea packages that comprise BEA's 1.6.0 SDK release are now
available.

The following packages comprise BEA's 1.6.0 Java release:

java-1.6.0-bea
java-1.6.0-bea-jdbc
java-1.6.0-bea-demo
java-1.6.0-bea-missioncontrol
java-1.6.0-bea-devel
java-1.6.0-bea-src

These packages include the BEA Java 6 Runtime Environment and the BEA Java
6 Software Development Kit.

The Java 6 Runtime Environment (JRE) consists of the Java virtual machine,
the Java platform core classes and supporting files. It is the runtime
section of the Java 6 SDK, but without the development tools such as
compilers and debuggers.

The Java 6 Software Development Kit (SDK) is a development environment for
building applications, applets, and components that can be deployed on the
Java platform. The Java 6 SDK software includes tools useful for developing
and testing programs written in the Java programming language. The Java 6
SDK software also includes a JDBC/ODBC bridge for Java applications that
need to communicate with a database.

These new packages include BEA's 1.6.0 SDK release.

Users of java-1.5.0-bea may install these new 1.6.0 packages in parallel
and switch between the new and old Java environments using the alternatives
tool, which is located at /usr/sbin/alternatives.
